Bang–

The sound of the door closing could be heard.

Yun Chunuan shivered. She felt as if the door was about to be shattered by the man’s strength.

What did he mean when he said that he had ‘taken care’ of that lord?

Could it be the language of Bian Liao? Had that lord he become a madman?

Gulp–

The fragrance of the chicken drumstick came, and Yun Chu’s hungry stomach protested again.

Just as she was hesitating whether to eat or not, a small crack suddenly appeared on the originally closed door.

A small head poked in and asked softly, “Princess, can I come in?”

It was that girl called Qiao’er, and she was not smart at all. Her red face had many freckles, and she smiled at Yun Chunuan with a simple and honest face.

Yun Chunuan actually wanted to refuse. She just wanted to have some time alone so that she could think carefully about what she should do.

Qiao’er, on the other hand, was very friendly. Without waiting for permission, she pushed the door open and walked in.

Then, she tiptoed and closed the door, as if she was afraid that she would be discovered.

Like a puppy, she sniffed in the air. Then, perhaps on purpose or following the scent, she came all the way to the side of the bed.

When she found the drumstick on the plate, her eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

“Ahhhh! Did the General really kill Dabao?! Dabao! My good Dabao! You died so tragically!”

The little girl was crying, her face full of snot and tears. She rolled up her sleeves and rubbed her face.

Yun Chunuan’s phoenix eyes were wide open. She was once again confused by her actions.

Just a moment ago, she was closing the door like a thief. Now, she was crying loudly. Was she afraid or not?

Who was Dabao? How did he die so tragically?

Yun Chunuan was really ignorant. She did not know that a chicken could be called ‘Dabao’.

She was really confused. Which Dabao had been killed that made the little girl so sad?

Yun Chunuan was about to console her.

She saw Qiao’er wipe her snot with her sleeve and look at her with tears in her eyes. “Princess, Dabao’s legs. What’s the taste? Is it delicious?”

Yun Chunuan said, “Huh?”

She looked at the little girl and then at the chicken leg on the plate.

She finally realized that Dabao was actually this stewed chicken…

Yun Chunuan shook her head. She was really sorry. She had not tasted Dabao’s flavor yet, so she did not know.

However, judging by the smell, it should not be bad.

Qiao’er blinked and squeezed out two strings of golden snot. A snot bubble popped out from her nostrils. “Princess, can you give me the leftover chicken bones?”

Seeing the Little Princess on the bed looking confused, Qiao’er quickly said, “Princess, don’t misunderstand! I’m not greedy, and I don’t want to eat Dabao! I just want to take it back as a souvenir! I want to make a monument for Dabao! Wuwuwu, it died too tragically!”

Yun Chunuan did not know what to say.

If there was a hospital in ancient times, she would immediately send this little girl to have her brain examined.

Her eyeballs could not move away from the drumstick, and she even said that it was not because she was hungry.

Yun Chunuan smiled helplessly. “If you want to eat, just eat. I’m not hungry.”

“No, no, no!” Qiao’er shook her head like a rattle drum. “This is prepared by the General for the Princess. I can’t eat it! Princess, hurry up and eat it. It won’t taste good if it’s cold.”

Seeing that the Little Princess was indifferent, Qiao’er was a little anxious, “Princess, you’re from the Central Plains. You probably don’t know how rare Dabao is on our side. King Li once wanted to exchange a hundred taels of gold for Dabao, but our General refused! Do you think you’re eating just a chicken drumstick? No, it’s the General’s heart!”

Outside the door, someone staggered.

The man beside him, who was also tall and strong, asked in a low voice, “General, do you want to kick that girl out?”

Qiao’er’s mouth did not have any filters. What did she mean by eating the General’s heart?

It would damage my General’s reputation!

A suspicious blush appeared on a certain someone’s wheat-colored face.

He waved at the tall and strong man, then slowly walked away with his hands behind his back.

When the man caught up, he coughed lightly and said, “Go to Aunt Ye and ask for the chicken ribs. give them to your sister.”

The man, whose name was Banley, was confused.

No way! Didn’t the General have a Princess of the Great Xia Kingdom now? Why did he take a liking to that silly girl who was still wet behind the ears?

“General… Qiao’er, she…”

“What’s wrong? She can eat too.”

A certain someone’s heart was hung on the delicate Little Princess. When he thought of that tender and soft little face, he could not help but rub his fingers against it, as if he was reminiscing about the beautiful touch.

The General said that Qiao’er could also eat chicken, but he did not know that it had been completely misunderstood by Banley!

Banley felt uncomfortable. He wanted to cry. How can he tactfully and politely reject the wrong love of the General on behalf of his sister?
